Poor Richard's Inn

POOR RICHARD'S, built in 1882 as the private residence of a Cape May hotel owner, has been run as an inn since 1977. It's one of that small number of owner-operated inns that offer exceptional overnight accommodations in National Landmark buildings. Each has its own special mix of style and service. At Poor Richard's we try to strike a balance between today's informality and yesterday's charm, without being pretentious or overbearing. We're friendly and helpful, but respect your privacy; and while the rooms are furnished with period pieces, our primary goal is to have guests feel comfortable and "at home"—we're not aiming at strict Victorian authenticity...and our prices aren't too outrageous.
